After the Anshi Rebellion, why was Li Heng able to quickly become emperor?

Li Heng was able to successfully claim the title of emperor mainly because of a good opportunity, and he could justifiably break away from the control of Tang Xuanzong and set up his own door. We all know that An Lushan launched the Anshi Rebellion after planning for a long time, and after the Anshi Rebellion broke out, the weak Tang Xuanzong did not choose to resist, but chose to abandon the city and flee. From this moment on, it was a rare opportunity for the crown prince Li Heng.

In the face of national crisis, the lord of a country took the lead in absconding, what a joke, and it also made the people of Chang'an completely lose trust in this monarch.

And Li Heng has always been an unappreciated prince, who has been suppressed by Yang Guozhong and others for a long time, as a prince, he is very aggrieved, and An Lushan's rebellion is to eradicate Yang Guozhong as the slogan of starting a war. Li Heng naturally knew that not only did he hate him, but Yang Guozhong was already the target of everyone. Getting rid of Yang Guozhong is already expected.

Not only can you relieve the hatred in your heart, solve an opponent, but also can relieve the emotions of the soldiers. Therefore, when Chen Xuanli suggested that Li Heng get rid of Yang Guozhong, Li Heng did not agree but did not refuse. Chen Xuanli knew that this was acquiescence.

As Li Heng expected, Yang Guozhong's death made Li Heng get a lot of support. Li Heng also knew that it was time to say goodbye to his father. Only by separating from his father can he have a chance to develop his own power, and there are already people waiting for him to succeed him in Lingwu.

In the era of Tang Xuanzong, first Li Linfu and then Yang Guozhong, the two generations of traitors have caused many people to be dissatisfied. And if you want to have a good development and advance quickly, the best way is to re-establish a monarch, and the best candidate for this is Li Heng, the crown prince of the dynasty.

Therefore, on the third day of Li Heng's arrival in Lingwu, he successfully ascended to the throne. The first is because he wants to seize this opportunity, and the second is because there is pressure from **. After Li Heng became emperor in Lingwu, he greatly boosted the morale of the people and soldiers, and Tang Xuanzong also gave support after learning the news, because he knew that he was no longer able to return to heaven, and the succession of the crown prince was also good for the country.

After the Anshi Rebellion, Guo Ziyi relied on his military exploits to control the government, and under his auspices, Li Heng was able to quickly become emperor!

After the Anshi Rebellion, this man accumulated a lot of money and food, and there were many people who followed him.

After this war, the troops, material and financial resources were almost consumed, and Li Heng had better be inspiring and united at this time.

He wanted Ming Brigade to prove his ability by trembling. The reason is to better obtain this status, and also want to obtain higher rights, gain higher power, want to be admired by more people, and be recognized by more people in the town, so they are so anxious.

is because he is anxious to win the love of the people, and he feels that Tang Xuanzong has no real power now, and it doesn't matter whether he has him or not.

The most fundamental reason is that it is necessary to fight the rebel socks. At that time, the Tang Dynasty was already in a state of turmoil. Li Longji is still the emperor, so King Yong is the leader of the army, but unfortunately, Li Heng is the emperor, and if King Yong finds soldiers to buy it, he will become a traitor.

Because Li Heng knew that Li Longji had no hope of pretending to be the emperor, after losing Yang Yuhuan, Li Longji was depressed all day long, and he couldn't take on the duties of being the emperor at all. Quietly travel stove.

Because Li Longji was already an emperor with no real power at that time, and he was particularly unfriendly to people, Li Heng wanted to seek power and usurp the throne and win justice for himself.

Li Heng is a veritable prince, and naturally wants to compete for the supreme throne and gain unprecedented rights.

After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, Li Heng's father, Tang Xuanzong, also often commanded troops to fight against An Lushan. Although Tang Xuanzong had the support of Guo Ziyi and other generals, he was over 70 years old at the time, and he had long since lost the heroic spirit of galloping on the battlefield back then, and his mental judgment had also decreased a lot, so he always took some rash measures in the war. Even if he had superior conditions for counterattacking, he would not be able to fight against An Lushan's rebels.

If he continues to be the commander, he will put himself at an even greater disadvantage. So he left his crown prince Li Heng and asked him to really guide the army to fight back against the rebels, while he chose to flee to Shu. And the reason why the crown prince Li Heng agreed with his father's approach and parted ways with his father was not because he was suppressed by his father before, but more because of the following two reasons.

The first aspect: the crown prince Li Heng wants to establish prestige through this incident. Indeed, although Tang Xuanzong supported the crown prince Li Heng above the court before, he criticized more than praised, so that the civil and military officials had mixed opinions about him.

So this is an opportunity for the crown prince Li Heng to show his ability, as the leader of a country, if he can quell the rebels, he will naturally be able to rightfully ascend to the throne. So he knew that it was dangerous to stay, but he also chose to stay and fight.

The second aspect: Prince Li Heng wants to show his father his abilities through this incident. When he was young, Tang Xuanzong taught the crown prince Li Heng earnestly, but he always lacked some exercise, and he had no way to perform it when he was full of economy.

This incident provided him with a good opportunity to show his father his strength. If the suppression of the rebels succeeds, it will not only prove his father's wisdom in choosing the crown prince, but also solve the crisis of the Tang Dynasty, so he will choose to part ways with his father.

The crown prince Li Heng was too oppressed by his father before, so it was a good thing that he chose to part ways with his father Tang Xuanzong when the Anshi Rebellion broke out.

The crown prince Li Heng was too oppressed by his father before, and he didn't like this kind of life, so he parted ways with his father after the Anshi Rebellion.

was oppressed too much by his father before, and the prince always wanted to rebel, and Tang Xuanzong was also aware of this matter, so it was a good thing to part ways.

I think that after the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, the reason why the crown prince Li Heng chose to part ways with his father Tang Xuanzong may be that he felt that he might be hurt if he was with his father Tang Xuanzong.

The Anshi Rebellion broke out, the rebels captured Chang'an, Tang Xuanzong fled in a hurry, without many soldiers and horses, the prince contacted the general Chen Xuanli and remembered the rebellion, but he didn't expect Chen Xuanli to be loyal to Xuanzong, and Tang Xuanzong had sensed the prince's rebellious heart, and the matter had come to this point, so he could only part ways.

At this time, there were two choices, whether Tang Xuanzong continued to go to Shu, or stayed and commanded the counterinsurgency, the emperor was in Shu, and it was impossible to command the counterinsurgency well, so at this time, his son Li Heng, the crown prince, stayed.

I think it's because the crown prince Li Heng and his father Tang Xuanzong had a disagreement, and Tang Xuanzong was too oppressive to the prince, which made him breathless, and he had to part ways with his father.
